Note that translations in DDTP are not tied to any release, they are
tied to the exact text. So if lenny and squeeze have the same package
description any update to the translation for a package will change
the translation in both releases.

In general the DDTP offers to let you translate packages from the
latest release only but you can update older descriptions also. The
problem you're most likely to run into is that while the DDTP can have
a newer translation, the files on the mirrors are not updated. I'm not
sure what the policy is there (or even if there is one).

Have a nice day,
